A number of CCS-technologies are currently being developed for the reduction of CO2 emissions from thermal power stations. One such technology is the oxyfuel process, in which a mixture of CO2 and steam is used as the working medium. The semi-closed oxyfuel combustion combined cycle (SCOC-CC) is an oxyfuel cycle where the working medium mainly consists of CO2 (85-95%). Current practice is to desig
As of January 1, 2005, it will no longer be allowed under international trade rules for one country to impose import quotas on textiles and garments on another country.

Current recommendations for diagnosing myelodysplastic syndromes endorse flow cytometry as an informative tool. Most flow cytometry protocols focus on the analysis of progenitor cells and the evaluation of the maturing myelomonocytic lineage. However, one of the most frequently observed features of myelodysplastic syndromes is anemia, which may be associated with dysery
Recent research on public transport has seen increasing focus on issues like coordination, collaboration and steering in complex governance settings. One of the themes in this field of research is related to partnership approaches, as one way of stimulating functioning collaboration between formally independent private and public organisations. The aim of this paper is to explore the role and func
Outpatient pulmonary hypertension (PH) specialist centers have an important role in the optimal management of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) and chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH). The aim of the present study was to gain an understanding of the work facing nurses at the outpatient PH specialist centers in Sweden. All nurses (n = 14) working at the outpatient PH specialis

The participants were c
Serial dependence (SD) is said to occur when the judgment of a current stimulus is drawn toward a no longer relevant stimulus from the recent past. Working memory (WM) contributes to the ability to discriminate between irrelevant and relevant sensory impressions. How WM contributes to SD in facial identity remains to be fully understood. In the present study, we used a WM task with varying load in

Syftet med denna uppsats är att undersöka möjligheten att bemöta missbruket av egenföretagande genom att applicera arbetstagarbegreppen i Sverige och i EU. Den fria rörligheten för tjänster och arbetare inom den interna europeiska marknaden öppnar upp för gränsöverskridande arbete mellan EU:s medlemsstater och det kan hävdas att egenföretagande kan användas för att kringgå nationella arbetsrättslaThe aim of this thesis is to investigate the possibility to combat the abuse of self-employment by applying the concepts of employment in Sweden and the EU. The free movement of services and workers within the internal market of the EU opens up for cross-border work between EU Member States and some claim that self-employment can be used as a way to circumvent national labour laws, collective agre
The purpose of this thesis was to investigate how social constructions of masculinities are connected to the high prevalence of gender-based violence (GBV) in the Bolivian context. Moreover, the thesis aimed to uncover why a growing number of organizations in Bolivia have chosen to incorporate a “masculinity approach” in their GBV interventions, and to analyse the challenges and opportunities pres
